ELECTRIC LAMP AND HEATER.

To all whom z't may concern:

Be it known that I, ELBEn'r A. CORBIN, Jr., a citizen of the United States, residing in the city of Swarthmore, county of Delaj utilize a fioor lamp structure as the standard soy or supporting device for the electric heater, fan and their adjuncts, the floor lamp standard serving to support both the heating and the lighting appliances as well as the rotary diffuse the heat throughout the room or apartment to be heated, and provision being made for enabling the shade of the lamp effectively to conceal the operative parts of the device, in addition to performinc1 its usual function of a reflector, whereby a novel, pleasing and effective appliance is produced having a pleasing as. well as a utilitarian appearance.

To the above ends, -ny invention consists of a novel construction of a base, a hollow standard supported thereon and a frame supported from said standard by means of which the electric lights, the electric blower or fan andthe electric heater are supported,

and collocated with respect to each other, the electrical connections to the lamps, heater and blower being concealed or contained within the hollow upri ht standard for the lamp and the shade of t e lamp serving both to conceal the novel elements of my device as well as to reflect the light downwardly.

It further consists of a novel construction of an electric lamp having a skeleton frame adapted to support the lamp shade as well as the guard which carries the electric heater and surrounds the blower located in proximity thereto.

,It further consists of other novel features of construction, all as Vwill be hereinafter fully set forth.

For the purpose of illustrating my invention, I have shown in the accompanying drawings forms thereof which are at present preferred by me, since they will give in practice satisfactory and reliable results,

although it is to be understood various instrumentalities of `whichlmy invention consists can be variously arranged and organired and thatgry invention is not that the Specification of Letters Eatent.

limited to the precise arrangement and 0rganization of these instrumentalities as herein shown and described.

Figure 1 represents a vertical, sectional View of a combined electric lamp and heater embodying my invention.

Fig. 2 represents a plan view of Fig. 1.

Fig. 3 represents a sectional view of a modification.

Fig. 4 represents a perspective view of the skeleton frame in detached position.

F ig. 5 represents a perspective view of a portion of Fig. 3.

Referring to the drawings: v

1 designates my novel construction of combined electric lamp and heater and their adjuncts, the same comprising the base 2, which is preferably provided with the channels- 3 and 4, through which the electric cable or conductorl passes, said conductor passing upwardly through the hollow tubular upright or standard 6 in the upper portion of which the tubular extension 7 is adjustably mounted, said extension 7 being capable of adjustment or removalwith respect to the standard 6 upon the proper manipulation of the wing nut 8 and Aits adjuncts. v

9 designates a skeleton frame composed of the base portion 10 and the upwardly extending outwardly flaring arms 11, said frame being supported upon the extension 7 by means of the nut or collar 12.

13 designates lugs or ledges on the upper inner surface of the arms 11, upon which rests the bottom of thel conical guard 14, which is open at its top and bottom and is of substantially the shape of a truncated cone2 said guard having secured in its upper portion the resistance coils or electric heater 15, below or in proximity to which is located the electric fan or blowing device 16 actuated by the electric motor 17, which is preferably mounted on the upper extremity of the extension 7. From the arms 11- of the frame 9 depend sockets for the electric lights 18, which may be any number desired, electricity being conducted t0 said lights by the connections 19.

The connections 20 conduct the electric current to the electric motor 17 and the connections 21 convey electricity to the heater or resistance coils 15, The shade 22 1s provided with the lugs or abutmcnt 23, wher@41 Patented Oct. 25, 1921.

'by-it is secured on the outer edges of the arms 11.

24: designates a switch of any conventional type, which is 4provided with a pendant chain 25, whereby the iow or' electricity` to the electric heater l5 through the conductor 2l can be regulated and by means of the chain 26, the electric fan or blower 16 can v be started and stopped and by the pendant fused into all ,arts of the room or apart-' ment and the s ade 22 serves t0. inclose andconeeal all the operative partso the device, and in addition performs its usual function: of a reiiector.

By reason of the upper extension .7 oithe tubular standard, it will be apparent that upon the manipulation or the wing nut 8, the inclination ofthe lamp with respect to thestandard 6 can be regulated according to requirements, and sinceall the parts carried by the frame 9, they lare readily accessible.

In the construction seen in Eig. 3, l have shown the lamp shade 22 as provided With the guard 28, carrying the resistance coils or electric heater 15 of substantially the same character as already described, but above the guard 28 I provide the arms 29, see Fig. 5i, on which is supported a hollow dome elector 30 which may be employed the location, function and construction o which will be a parent fromddig. 3.
